Blazing Saddles? Holy shit. I've seen that upwards of 50 times at this stage I'd say. I used to know every single word off by heart, and I could probably still have a good go at it.

I have it on VHS, NTSC VHS, DVD and now Sky Plus (it was on there a week or so ago). Brilliant.

My name is Jim. But my friends call me.....Jim.

Or Hitler  in his NY accent: "they lose me right after the bunker scene!"

Harvey Korman stole the show though, along with Slim Pickens.

Asal Mor

The Big Lebowski is hilarious and really clever too. I'd love to have never seen it so I could watch it again for the first time.

The Godfathers, Deer Hunter, Taxi Driver: I could take them or leave them, maybe they're just not my kind of movies.

Kubrick's stuff: A lot of it was just weird though visually impressive, but A Clockwork Orange is imo a masterpiece, and probably the greatest film ever made.

Just noticed there that I've seen every Oscar winner from 1971-2000! What happened in 2001 that got in the way of my movie viewing? I wonder . . . . .  ;)

4 were decent, 2 very good, the rest I thought were rubbish
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

It doesn't seem like that long ago....

2 from 14. Have no real desire to see the other 12. Films these days just aren't what they used to be. I'd say there'd be maybe a couple of films every 4/5 years that I'd really want to see.

I bought the box set of The Matrix movies about 3 years ago and haven't got round to watching any of them yet.

You only needed to buy the first one.

Yeah, so I believe. I think that's why I haven't got round to watching any of them.

Ach they're all great imo, just the first one is one of the best films of all time so naturally outshines the other two a bit...

Nah, the second one is shite and the third is truly appalling. Second isn't as bad as I originally thought though but third is infinitely worse. The scene with the Architect - ergo, concordantly, vis-a9vis etc. Utter nonsense.
